Compiles interviews with 38 pilots. The interviewees represent more than 70 years of aviation history, from a female barnstormer to Space Shuttle crewmembers. Some of the experiences recounted here include bush piloting, flying airmail in the late 1920s, flying the Memphis Belle, witnessing the atom-bombing of Nagasaki, flying during the Berlin air lift, being shot down during the Gulf War, and being launched into space. Most interviews include at least one b&w picture. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
